Recommend a charity

Every year, registered members of the churches throughout the Chaplaincy are invited to submit proposals for charities – that they know, support or are connected with – to receive financial support from the Chaplaincy in the next calendar year.

This is a four-stage process:

Nominations are made by church members – you!

Nominations are reviewed and short listed by Local Church Committees.

Short listed nominations are reviewed by the Chaplaincy Charities Committee, who then make their recommendations to the Chaplaincy Council.

Financial awards are made by Chaplaincy Council.

Eligible charities

The charity you want to nominate does not have to be ‘exclusively’ Christian. In the past, awards have been made to projects and organisations who’s work focuses on community development, training, education, evangelical outreach, medical services – in fact almost anything! And the charity can be at work here, in the region or diocese, your home country in fact anywhere will be prayerfully considered. However, please note that nominations from members should not normally be for ’emergency’ appeal types of charities.

Every request will be prayerfully considered, however a positive response cannot always be made. No charity is necessarily guaranteed support on a continuing basis – awards will normally only be given once only in order to involve as many members of the congregation as possible and to get as wide a geographical spread as is represented by the congregation.

Making your nomination

You can do this by picking up a nomination form from church (or download it here), completing it and handing it in to the Church Office or the Charities Representative at church, or leave it in the Church Office.

Feedback

Although I have only managed to be a peripheral member of the Christ Church Jebel Ali community I would like to thank you for always being there for me each week... and for providing me with a home. You will be in my prayers. God bless.
